Yeah, I found it finally. Skydio and Promate Capital 30 are meant to be together! Just bought this huge powerbank for 30,000 mAh with 60W usb-c PD charge. This thing charged my Skydio battery in about an hour 👍👍👍
This is a pretty solid firmware upgrade. I knew the case landing was probably in the works, since the way the logo was printed on top of the flat case it just looked like a landing pad. Nice video, and great information.
Mine didn't turn green either, but the update completed and it works GREAT! I love how the Beacon now will go out 40 metres from me whilst tracking. And also how the S2 lands on the CASE. I've ordered a vinyl "Skydio Logo" for the tonneau on my truck, for it to land on without using the case.
Always come to your channel to find out whats new and how to use or install... Would like to see a video going over how to turn off the auto record once the drone is in the air. I always have trouble with this. Last time the whole video feed went blank. Thanks Dave...
Great uodate, but I'd like to see more Waypoints on the Cable Cam. I works superbly, but 6 Waypoints plus would be great for those not just doing Follow Me.
You update the firmware on the beaten in the same manner. Just plug it into the Skydio 2 drone and it won’t update the Beacon. Also I do believe if you connect the beacon wirelessly to the Skydio 2 it will push the firmware update that way as well
Sean after firmware update my dual charger my batteries dont get full charge all day been charging and 4th LED still blinking any idea why? battery on the drone get fully 100% charged
Off top but don’t you know if it’s possible to charge Skydio batteries through dual charger using powerbank as a source? I tried so and left for 2 hours but mounted-in Amp meter show only 0.45 Amps as a charging current which is too low….I hoped for 2 Amps as it is while charging a phone.
Its a year later, but i have succesfully charged 2 skydio 2 batteries on the dual charger, from a 100w output powerbank (goal zero 100PD) and it output at 95W for both and then down to 77W when the first pack was topped off. This came out to about the entire 100wh capacity of the powerbank getting dumped into the skydio batteries in about 55minutes. I then learned the dual charger OUTPUT is only 8w... so recharging my powerbank again will take a bit longer.

You know drones are pretty cool. You helped me get into them.

Very good idea
May I ask, where did you order the Skydio vinyl Logo?
Great update and information video

Seems like the firmware update is super useful 👍
It did turn green for me :)
Interesting. I waited for well over five minutes and it stayed blue but it does appear the firmware went through
Totally missed the update for the Dual charger, now i have a powerbank in my skydio kit and didnt have to add anything
Thank you very much is greatly appreciated
Sana may ganyan na benebenta dito sa philippines.. super nice drone i love it so much😍

thank you for the review
GREAT JOB
Thanks Rick
The update uses the green filling from left all the way right. One blink at being.
Great video how do you update the firmware on the beacon?

What is the power output limit on the power bank? is it Quick charge? (I doubt it) Is it a 1 amp limit? I cant find this info anywhere.
